This is why I'm not worried about Zillow, Amazon or anybody else eliminating the role of a good real estate agent. 

@Todd Dexheimer When you say "2 tenants to be your caretakers", can you expand a little bit on their role(s) are?

It seems like a slight shift in mindset is needed from my normal Realtor role but not much :D

And that the Plaintiffs never signed any documents waving thier right to cost and attorney's fees and had no acknowledgment that the "no-recourse" language was in the note and mortgage.I have tried to resolve this issue without getting an attorney, but it seems that the seller's attorney feels that since I am out of town that they can role over me.I feel like my best move now would be to counter sue them, for knowing selling me a defective property, then trying to undue the no recourse language. ( while the cat is way the mice will play)Does anyone know of an attorney in or near Batesville Arkansas that could assist in this matter?

Those options either marginalize the custodian's role or completely eliminate it.For CA residents, there are some additional considerations because of the state's franchise board tax.

If you work at least 750 hours in an active investing role, and you don't work more hours in any other business/job, you may qualify as a real estate professional. 

The triplex is probably like a C/C- neighborhood and the condition plays a big role in how much interest I have in older properties.  

I commend you for taking on an investor, facilitator, role.

(He was on podcast #260) I totally was blown away by the way he did the role playing negotiation at the end of the podcast and decided to buy his book.

I vote stay in the PM role that you love and find another part time job or side hustle to add to your down payment fund.Can you get your own pest spray and tools and hang your shingle as an independent mosquito sprayer on off days, nights and weekends?
